Oh, you, Rio Grande!
Get in there! Come on, Speed!
This here's Mexican dirt! You can't touch me!
You thought you'd get the old man in the moon.
You Texas clodbusters is a disgrace to the Confederacy.
Speed, this ain't no time to let me down.
Get up! Come on, Speed!
Goddamn it, Speed!
You can't do this!
This is Mexican territory!
I don't believe it!
He cross the Grande river and his horse faints on him!
I can't believe it!
It's a goddamn foreign country here!
This ain't fair, goddamn it!
This ain't fair!
Good Lord.
They're stringing up old Speed.
I have here a very fine animal...
once owned by the hombre we're about to hang.
What am I offered?
Hey! I still own that horse!
When we want to hear from you, amigo...
we'll rattle your cage.
Is that the horse that fainted?
Yeah, he fainted, but he got up, didn't he?
What?
Towfield, I told you to keep these buzzards out of here!
Take it easy, Moon.
You're lucky you're getting a decent hanging.
I'd have done it out there on a scrub oak.
Goddamn vultures hanging around here all morning.
They just wanted to take a gander at the man of the hour.
Yeah. Well, I'm flattered as hell.
You're a real card, Moon. I'm gonna miss ya.
Your family's here. Make it short.
Boys!
Brother Abe.
Jimmy, Gussie and everybody.
Dumb-ass deputy.
He thought you was really my family.
That's how I figured.
You look pretty as a painting, honey.
How ya doing, Henry?
Well...
roll it out.
Nothing like that, Henry.
We just come to see you off.
See me off?
Doesn't look like you did too good on your own, Henry, did you?
You should've stuck with us, 'cause we was going places, goddamn it.
What do you mean "was"?
All you gotta do is spring me.
If we tried anything, we'd only get ourselves--
Yeah, but that's without my plans.
Cut that out.
Big Abe, they're gonna send me to the bone orchard.
If you got anything you wanna give away, Henry, now's the time.
Say your good-byes, boys.
Nice knowing you.
Yeah, Coogan, sure.
It just ain't right.
Just for cutting a few horses and robbing a few banks.
- Law's gotta be changed. - Yeah.
Go on outside.
So long, Moon.
Well, honey...
Least we had some good old times together.
You was the best I ever had.
Except maybe that circus feller.
Why does that always upset you so?
What did you bring a thing like that up...
at a time like this for, Hermine? Shit!
Oh, Henry!
Oh, Abe!
Don't you worry none, Moon.
I'm gonna take care of this girl like she's my very own.
Come on, now.
Oh, Henry!
Mr. Moon?
It's about that time.
What about my last meal?
You're smoking it.
Hands behind your back, Mr. Moon.
He ain't for you, Serene.
I wouldn't take you to a dogfight...
if you was the defending champ.
You oughtn't have done that, Mr. Moon.
Well, why don't you keep me in jail for it?
You tell him about the ordinance?
No.
Why not?
I don't like him...
and people I don't like, I don't tell nothing.
Goddamn it, Towfield.
What ordinance?
Sheriff Pile?
Kyle.
We got this ordinance here that was passed after the Civil War...
account a lot of our boys didn't come home...
and women was beginning to chew up the grass.
I feel sorry for the grass.
I feel sorry for the women.
Anyhow, this ordinance states that any man short of being a murderer...
can be saved from the gallows by any property-holding female...
providing she decides to marry him.
They done that in Roman times, too, as I recollect.
Sweet Jesus H. Christ almighty!
Ma'am?
I think there's a couple of things about me...
that I'd like for you to consider.
I don't need your insults.
I agree with you completely...
but you gotta take into consideration...
that a man can get a little irritated...
and he can act like the dickens...
when he's about to pull hemp.
Buzzards, huh?
Well, buzzards can fly.
And they keep the desert clean!
I cook!
I cook like a son of a bitch!
I mean, like the dickens!
- Hello, son. - Go to hell.
I understand.
Henry Lloyd Moon...
you've been found guilty of horse thievery...
and sentenced to be hanged.
Do you have any final last words?
Just this.
I wanna tell you good people of Longhorn...
especially you lovely ladies...
that the old saying...
"You can't judge a book by it's cover"--
it's true.
It's true.
Some books is all...
scruffed up on the outside...
but when you turn around and look inside...
why, the words is just...
wonderful.
Is that it, Moon?
Well, isn't there anybody else got anything to say?
"The Lord is my shepherd. I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures.
He leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul."
That's not right.
"The Lord is my shepherd. I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures.
He restoreth my soul.
He leadeth me beside the still waters.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death--"
I'm a veteran of the great Civil War!
"For thou art with me."
The only reason why I turned to crime...
is there wasn't no jobs!
Not one single job for a man who risked his life...
for this great country...
- "Thou anointest my head with oil." - and the Confederacy!
This one's dumb. He'll swing for sure.
He's better off.
"And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever."
Bullshit!
He's ready to go!
Stop!
- I'll take him. - Her again?
Florence. Now--
Don't you think that you're...
a mite too elderly to be taking on a responsibility like this?
I've got a good feeling about him, Andrew.
The boy's a veteran.
He deserves a second chance.
Somebody take this sumbitchin' blindfold off me...
and let me see my bride!
Where is she?
Florence!
Mrs. Henry Moon...
Let me look at you!
- Stand back, folks. - Florence.
Stand back, please.
Just ain't your day.
Maybe she just fainted.
I think I made her dizzy.
Down she go. Up you go!
Is she dead?
At least she died happy.
Then I'll take him.
Julia, what are you saying? He's an outlaw.
I assumed that's why you were hanging him.
Are you drunk?
Sheriff Kyle, you know I don't drink.
'Course she don't drink!
You want him?
According to the law, I can claim him, right?
I asked you out ten times. What did I get?
A flap of your umbrella. Shit!
All right.
Okay, Julia.
Mr. Moon...
what do you say?
Well...
I ain't no side of beef to be auctioned off...
but what the hell.
Fine by me.
Well, I think I'll skip the wedding.
I ain't taking Frank Towfield's business tonight.
Somebody's taking it...
or we ain't got no business.
Now, Mr. Moon, no drinking...
no gambling, no wife-beating...
no alley-catting, whatnot nor what have you.
You got to mind her...
and if you try running, there will be $500 on your head.
Well, gentlemen, much obliged to you.
Much obliged.
Shall I take the reins, dear?
See? I told you he had a plan.
You'll dance in the air, you son of a bitch--
stealing my girl.
Miss...
in case you wanna know who you're dealing with...
I used to ride with Quantrill's Raiders.
You always this quiet?
When I have something to say, you'll hear it.
Well, look, I can get off right here as far as I'm concerned.
Of course, a good husband's hard to find.
You weren't hard to find.
You were standing in front of the whole town...
with a rope around your neck.
Yeah.
You sure are a smart woman.
I like smart women.
I'm sure you do.
Who's that?
One of the reasons we got married.
Hey, Rover.
- That's Grover. - Hey, Grover.
This is where I live.
Well, Julia, it ain't much...
but it's a start.
Well, I guess I don't get to carry you across the threshold.
Wipe your feet, please.
Always do.
It looks like an opera house.
Please take your clothes off, Mr. Moon.
Take your clothes off, Mr. Moon.
Don't sit there.
Here. Put these on.
These is--
These is work clothes.
That's right.
Well, I just got married.
Don't count on that too much.
This is a gold mine?
- In Texas? - It's gonna be.
Looks like mice been into it.
First you'll begin crevicing.
Then crosscut using the singular jacking method.
I ain't familiar with that particular method.
You pry away any loose rocks.
Are you watching?
Then you insert the drill...
Like this.
Then you use the sledgehammer.
Simple.
Where's the gloves?
My hands blisters easy.
Better blisters than neck burns.
Mr. Moon--
Pretend we're friends and call me Henry.
The railroad is breathing down my neck...
so let's not waste any more time.
I'll do all I can do...
but that's all I can do.
I'll be outside running auriferous tests.
Why don't you run one on your skull while you're at it?
Supper's ready.
I don't believe in wasting time at the table.
How did you come in to this place?
It was my father's.
He believe in this gold mine?
He believed but not enough.
Sounds like he was the brains in the family.
Boiled chicken?
Boiled is better for you.
How's about a little dessert?
Said...
"How's about a little dessert?"
I heard you the first time.
You didn't answer me the first time.
Can I ask you a personal question?
When was the last time that you had a man?
I hope you don't mind working in confined spaces...
because tomorrow we start tunneling.
Goddamn! I should've knowed.
You can always tell a virgin on account of...
the whites of the eyes ain't clear.
See, I got this theory on virgins...
that they're always looking peaked and grouchy...
on account of they're going against nature.
I don't want to get calluses patting myself on the back...
but in my time...
I have put a gal or two in tune with nature.
I'm sure nature is very grateful.
Listen to me.
Don't let starting late bother you none.
Some of them late bloomers is--
I'll be outside in the barn...
if you feel like getting acquainted or...
talking about tunneling.
And remember.
Nature is the great provider.
Goddamn.
Good morning, Spot.
Get you some bacon?
Morning, Miss!
What's for breakfast?
Conserve your energy. There's a lot of work to do.
Don't you worry about me.
I know how to pace myself.
If I want to...
I can do this all day long!
I'm talking about...
all day long!
Pace myself.
Where are you going?
I want to...
take a little Spanish pause.
That's one of the keys to pacing yourself.
You just go on trimming your wicks.
'Cause I can do this all day long.
I'm talking about all day long!
All day long!
Hey, lady!
Understand?
She sure is full of piss and vinegar today, ain't she?
An awful lot of literature on Philadelphia.
What's the fascination with the City of Motherly Love?
Brotherly.
I'm moving there.
To Philadelphia?
Just as soon as I strike gold.
I like it down there in Mexico.
Pace suits me better.
Slow days and fast nights.
What a pleasant surprise.
We saw the lights and felt we wouldn't be intruding.
Oh, Lorette, you're never intruding.
Y'all remember my husband, Henry?
Welcome to our humble abode.
We brought along a little wedding something.
Oh, you shouldn't have.
How pretty.
We was just saying how much we needed a figurine.
I'll get us some tea.
- Shall I help? - We'll help.
Don't be long now.
We felt you'd be needing someone to talk to...
especially now.
Look, honey, what Lorette's trying to say...
is that we all have so much in common these days.
We do?
We're all ordinance brides.
Since you've never been married before...
we all thought we should have a little chat.
Do you prefer orange pekoe or Lapsang oolong?
You see, a husband has certain rights.
And a wife has certain duties.
And that's where the trouble starts.
Speak for yourself, Lorette.
You know, I rode with Quantrill.
Finest revolver gang in history till he died.
Quantrill died?
Last year.
That Shorty, he don't even ask.
He just goes right to it.
Those outlaws just don't know how to take "no" for an answer.
Whitey is so funny.
Why, last night, he got all painted up like an Indian...
and did he go on the warpath!
Mary!
Say, wanna have yourself a really wild time?
Why don't you dress up like an Indian?
Well, that sounds like it ought to be Julia's cup of tea.
I guess I'll go on out...
and see how the squaws are doing.
I suppose what we're trying to say, Julia, is...
it's not as much of a chore as you may have heard.
But if it should become one...
I have found...
that the best thing to do...
is just think about canning apricots.
Apricots?
Well, for some reason, apricots just seem to work best.
How we doing, ladies?
- Bye. - Bye.
Thank you for the lovely gift.
Let's do it again real soon!
Nice folks.
They seem content.
Well...
you know what they say:
"Lady love an outlaw like a little boy love a stray dog."
We still haven't cleaned up that table.
You know, I was thinking about them chairs of yours.
Picking them up, setting them down through the air...
why, it's poetry.
I think I'm getting a headache.
Pretty soon all over America...
people's gonna be picking up chairs...
and setting them down.
It's gonna be all your doing.
Julia...
what do you say we try canning some of them apricots.
"It would be like a man hauling with one ox...
and looking for two, hoping for the help of the Lord.
Why not get rid of all the oxen...
and count on the Maker all the way?"
Very good.
I look forward to hearing it on Sunday.
Thank you.
Morning, ladies!
I sure did enjoy them canned apricots last night!
What in the hell was that supposed to be?
A joke?
No, you don't understand.
A joke is when you make somebody laugh.
Miss Tate, please step into the office.
It's Mrs. Moon.
Excuse me.
- Miss Tate-- - Why, you--
Henry.
I believe this is between Mr. Polty and myself.
Hey, Moon!
It looks like the honeymoon is over!
What's the matter, Moon?
You're looking like a dog without a bone!
Hey, Hector.
Why don't you go down the Mexican side of town...
see what the beans is jumping on.
"Beans"?
Beans.
You know, Polty's just another word for "chicken."
Good one, Towfield.
- Who thought it up for you? - Come on! Let's go chew the fat.
What for?
'Cause I'm in a good mood.
Well...
then how's about a little snort?
Hey, Peachy.
Bottle of mash, two glasses, Norvell.
Not for him.
What do you mean, not for me?
Sheriff's orders.
Sheriff didn't tell me.
You don't tell him nothing, so he don't tell you nothing.
Them's the breaks.
You know...
I owe you a special thanks.
What for?
What for? Hell!
If you hadn't jerked me back across the border...
to my just desserts, so to speak...
why, I'd never been married to Julia.
Thinking on it that way, why...
you sorta...
introduced us.
Yeah, Towfield. Things is good.
You heard about them matches made in heaven, didn't you?
Well, I met one of 'em!
Goddamn it, Moon! You stole my girl!
Take it easy, Towfield.
You're a-wrinkling my good luck bandanna.
How's this?
You give me the bottle, and I'll--
I'll tell you the truth.
You mean you was just japin' me?
She puts chairs up on the wall...
so's people can't set on 'em.
What?
I can't go into it, Towfield. It's over your head.
But it's bad, huh?
Like eggs rolled in sand.
Duck out back for a snort.
The trouble with Andrew Johnson is he's a damn mugwump.
Don't mention that son of a bitch's name to me.
Listen, amigo. I don't ever want you to call me a bean again.
What the hell was that?
This is as difficult for me as it is for you, Julia.
Do you know, a year ago last Christmas Eve...
I had to move 150 Comanche souls...
off their sacred burial ground.
I know exactly how they felt.
What's the matter, honey? You look whiter than an albino.
You been bothering my wife?
We have 30 days to vacate.
- What do you mean? - This doesn't concern you.
If it concerns her, it concerns me.
The railroad is taking over my land under eminent domain.
Chester, come on!
Eminent domain.
Ain't that where somebody bribes the state legislature...
to take away some poor folks' land?
I won't dignify that with an answer.
I ain't asking for no dignification.
But I do finding it interesting that you...
prefer doing business with the lady of the house.
Come on, Moon.
I'm sorry, Julia...
but unless I am advised otherwise...
I'll be out to survey.
You know...
Polty's just another way of saying "chicken."
Whoa.
Oh, give me the girl
Who loves a man
And loves him for himself
Who's first consideration
Is not his strength and pelf
All sordid-minded damsels...
May worship golden dross
They may be old maids till they die
- And will never feel their loss - Lovely. Oh, yes.
Oh, Mother says I mustn't
Oh, George, please, George
- Not just yet - Oh, yes. Swim.
- Oh, Mother says I mustn't - Swim. Be naked.
- Mother says I mustn't - Oh, yes.
Oh, George, please, George
Oh, I love you!
Who's there? What are you doing?
Oh, Julia!
I was just out here surveying.
You liar! You were spying on me!
Me?
I never would do such a thing.
Help!
Julia. I swear on my honor.
- I didn't see a thing. - Help!
It's not what you think!
- You old-- - What's going on here?
Nothing.
You bothering my wife again?
I was out surveying. There's my equipment.
My tripod, my maps, et cetera.
- See? - I caught you, didn't I?
I swear. No. I wasn't doing anything.
Then apologize.
- I apologize. - All right.
Now eminent domain your ass out of here!
- Ooh, nasty! - Weasel!
What's the matter?
Nothing.
Why'd you stop laughing?
I don't know. Get to work.
I'd rather laugh.
- That's all you like to do. - No.
That ain't all I like to do.
Uh-uh, Moon.
Ooh! Nasty!
Damn.
A norther.
- It's a norther. - Yeah.
Did you get stung?
Yes.
Did you?
Where?
Outlaw don't know how to take "no" for an answer.
What are you doing down there?
What am I doing?
I guess I was dreaming about the tunnel or something.
- Get down! - "Get down"?
You got me drunk! I don't remember a thing!
I didn't get you drunk!
I will not that kind of talk in my house!
- Hey! - You tricked me!
I didn't trick you.
You get your clothes and get out! There's work to do!
Oh. I get it.
You're so afraid that you're gonna like that...
that you're gonna forget about the gold and Philadelphia!
You get your clothes and you get out of here!
Son of a bitch!
I was right all these years!
Them painted ladies knows how to...
appreciate a man.
There's no goddamn unnatural questions!
"How did it feel?"
Damn it! I feel sorry...
for the poor sumbitchin' son of a bitch that winds up with you!
Nice being married to you!
You haven't got a plug nickel!
- Come on! - You haven't even got a gun!
You won't even get 20 miles before a posse will come and get you...
and string you up!
The only reason why I slept with you is so you'd keep on working!
I hope they hang you!
Not the curtain!
You wouldn't dare!
Well...
I hadn't thought of it.
But now that you mention it...
up in San Francisco...
I seen some Chinese that done it this way.
The Chinese is an old civilization.
They understand things about pleasure that...
I've never even thought of.
One thing for sure. We ain't had a boring marriage.
Deputy, how can you do a thing like this?
But 15 days?
- That's not fair. - Tell it to the railroad.
We've been here since '43.
- Well, them's the breaks. - Come on.
Damn black goo!
I was just going into town to...
buy an anvil.
Now, gentlemen, let's not have no misunderstandings.
Me and the little woman haven't been getting along of late.
Don't go in there!
Where's the doctor?
What's the matter, dear? Where's the doctor?
Doctor. Oh, yeah.
I never did get over there.
This pea-brain grabbed me and stuck me in an animal wagon.
It would have broke your heart to see it, honey.
You never told me about no doctor.
You never asked me about no doctor.
Is something wrong, Julia?
Female trouble.
Oh. The vapors.
I better put you to bed, darling.
I just got out of bed, darling.
What the hell did you pick him up for, Towfield?
- He was dressed up like a Mexican. - You can't arrest a man for that.
I told him.
Well...
Let's leave these two lovebirds alone.
I told him. I told you, but, no, you wouldn't--
You missed me, didn't you?
I did not.
Yeah. I can see it. Them eyes ain't angry.
They're relieved...
and they ain't bloodshot no more.
I wanted you back for one reason-- to work the mine.
You missed the old man in the moon.
Hell, I got my faults, I admit it, but...
well, hell, I got my ways too.
Yeah, I--
I missed you a little bit too.
I did.
When I was heading for the border...
I couldn't stop but thinking that...
nobody's ever saved my life before.
And I just couldn't leave you in your time of need of me.
It's been quite a day.
I'm a bit tuckered out. I think I'll take a siesta.
You don't have to sleep in the barn.
You can sleep on the couch.
Say when.
When.
Bats.
That's it for me.
I'm too young to die.
You don't understand.
I understand about dreams.
I understand about waking up too.
Didn't I want to ride with the Younger gang...
and they wouldn't have me?
Claimed I wasn't cut out to be a Younger.
My feelings was hurt...
but I accepted it.
You know, for an outlaw, you've been a pretty good friend.
What's the matter?
Gold!
Good Lord Almighty, I've found gold!
Watch out.
Don't knock into none of these beams.
I been here. I know it's around here somewhere.
- I can feel it! - I don't see nothing.
- It's here. - Where?
- Believe me, it's here. - Where?
Goddamn!
Look at that! Gold!
Goddamn, it's all over everything.
I told you. Didn't I tell you?
Oh, honey, kiss me. I'm rich.
Goddamn, I am rich.
I knew it.
You wait long enough, and pretty soon...
down it's going to come right on you.
Looks like a wall full of Mexican teeth.
You know, I'm gonna get my initials put on my saddle...
in gold.
They like it that way down there in Mexico.
Alls we gotta do now is...
deposit this first bunch in the bank and then--
"We"?
What do you mean, "we"? What are you saying?
Well, just that in all fairness, I played a part...
in striking the gold.
You never believed it existed.
But you'd have never struck it if it wasn't for me.
Correcto?
So?
So, where's my--
Where's my share of the stake?
You're right.
I'll give you ten percent.
You don't understand. You see...
sharing is giving to each other.
Fifty percent.
We'll talk about it later.
All right, all right.
Twenty-five percent, and we can...
stop this conversation right here.
Must be funny actually depositing something in a bank, huh, Moon?
Yeah. It's a whole new experience for me.
That's it.
Sure are sorry to have you and Miriam leaving us.
Thank you, Mrs. Haber, but with the railroad...
and this black stuff springing up everywheres...
a man just can't grow a decent ear of corn.
Awful heavy for figurines.
It's my whole collection.
Well, I'll guard it with my life.
You can do better than that, Whitey.
Henry Lloyd Moon at the bank.
Want one of these?
Sure.
Goddamn it.
I like being rich.
Maybe now you can buy your way into the Younger gang.
Doll...
I think I'll buy me a little cantina...
south of the border.
Time to start living the good life.
Goddamn it, honey, I'm gonna be a patron.
Tequila, cards...
senoritas.
Wait till the Domingi sisters get a load of me!
Don't do that. You're acting foolish.
Maybe you ought to try it.
You want to see something foolish?
That's foolish.
Fifty percent?
You're going to give me...
fifty percent?
We're partners, aren't we?
Well, if you're going to put it that way...
yeah.
I don't know how to...
say this, Henry...
but...
I think I got...
greedy and selfish...
Living alone so long.
Well...
that's how you get.
Once you get started...
you don't hardly ever get out of it.
For calling me Henry.
- Friends of yours? - Used to be.
- What are they doing here? - Good question.
Well!
Sorry to keep you all waiting, but...
me and the missus was just playing a little game of fish.
Thought we'd stop by and bring you a little shivaree, Moon.
Oh, did you?
Since we ain't been formally invited.
Well, me and Julia was just saying the other day how we was...
gonna have you all out.
Well, you damn sure got your wish, didn't you?
I damn sure did.
Ain't you gonna ask us in, Henry?
Why, sure, honey pie.
Don't you boys know how to wipe your feet?
Hey, Hog Coogan! Wipe your feet off.
Hope you like taffy.
It was my idea.
Thank you.
They call me Big Abe.
Old Henry still snore in his sleep?
I want them out of here!
Not as much as I do.
You want them to find out about the dust?
Well!
- Anybody hungry? - Hungry?
Shit. I could eat a frozen dog.
We'll go on out to the kitchen and see if we got one already froze.
I wouldn't eat no frozen dog.
- A feast fit for a king. - That's his speciality.
Them female bull feathers make it tasty.
Did you know that old Henry used to cook for the Raiders?
He cooked for Quantrill's Raiders?
No, he never told me that.
I bet there's a lot of things he never told you.
Shit, Hog!
Goddamn, Abe.
- Jesus Christ! - You loosened my molar up!
Grab your girl Now pull on her mane
Just play along a little while longer.
Well, you go on ahead. I don't want to spoil your fun.
I ain't having a good time. I swear I ain't.
I'm just trying to throw them off the track.
They wouldn't know it was me if I wasn't acting wild and--
Forget about all this and get in there and have a good time.
Act foolish!
Beautiful dreamer
Awaken to me
Beautiful dreamer
Waken to me
Starlight and dewdrops are waitin' for thee
Ah, shit.
This ain't no real marriage.
Come on.
Meet me tonight, huh?
I'll give you my old coyote call.
Remember?
Not now.
To me
Anybody seen my goddamn molar?
Nope.
But if I do, can I put it under my pillow...
for the Tooth Fairy?
You won't get nothing for his molar.
Come on, boys. Let's help Big Abe find his goddamn molar.
No! Wait! I have a better idea.
Moon, let's you and me go buy Big Abe...
a whole goddamn set of gold teeth!
You'll ruin everything acting like a goddamn fool.
I don't give a goddamn what anybody says!
I'm a gentleman!
And I'm not gonna throw up in this here house.
I'm going outside to throw up, 'cause I respect your house.
Big Abe, you can throw up in this house...
any old time.
Goddamn gold! Gold!
That son of a bitch is keeping gold from us!
God Almighty. Son of a bitch.
You almost spilled the beans.
Come on and help me find Big Abe's molar.
Didn't I tell you to watch what you was doing?
You don't understand outlaws!
I understood you when you told me to act foolish.
I didn't tell you to get drunk and start singing your damn head off!
Hog liked my singing.
That's why they call him Hog!
Damn, Hermine.
Quit that goddamn coyote calling. I'm here.
Your wife's acting terrible, ain't she?
She just had a little too much bug juice.
I figure you ain't had much of anything of anything...
in a long time.
How's come you and the boys decided...
to stop by tonight?
I want to make it real good for you, Henry.
Hermine, you ain't hearing what I'm asking.
- What was the question? - I don't want to hurt your feelings.
I appreciate the coyote calling and all...
but I told you things has changed.
Crawl in, Henry. See what I got.
Hermine, you ain't hearing me. I seen what you got. It was swell.
We had some times together that I'll never forget.
But Hermine, now I'm took.
Hold it.
That's enough.
Don't shoot.
Vamoose.
If I was monkeying around, would I still have my clothes on?
Then why did you go out there?
Don't make no difference.
No matter what I say, you ain't gonna believe me.
Go ahead.
Well, I was just trying to get information off of Hermine.
That wasn't all you were trying to get off of her.
All I wanted to know was...
if they knew anything about the gold.
You care more about that damn gold than you do about me.
That ain't true.
I could have done what you think I done, but I didn't.
I don't believe you didn't.
I was there strictly on business.
You want that woman! Well, you take her...
but you forget all about the gold!
People can't afford business partners that cheat on 'em.
- We made an agreement. - And I'm breaking it.
You can't do that to me.
I just did.
That tears it.
Gonna put the old double "X" to Henry Moon, huh?
Well, we'll see.
You want your gun back, Moon?
Where's the goddamn gold?
What gold?
That gold right there, goddamn it! Real gold!
Where is it?
You ain't quite as ignorant as you look, are you?
- Come on in. - How much we got here?
Enough. As a matter of fact...
I was just coming looking for you boys.
Sure, you was.
We're gonna hit the Longhorn Bank.
There ain't nothing in that goddamn chicken-feed bank...
but sun-filled windows.
And all the little lady's gold.
- Let's hit her in the morning. - Not yet.
Got a plan?
I'm gonna make that woman sorry...
she ever said, "I do."
I tell you, he's hiding something from us.
- I don't think so. - I know so.
I was certain he had a plan. I knew he had a plan.
Me too, but I don't know if we're gonna be in on it or not!
Let's keep a watch on the son of a bitch.
Come on, gang!
You better take a rest before your arm falls off.
You want some water?
Are you always this quiet?
I got nothing to say.
I keep my word.
Honey!
Honey, are you all right?
Goddamn!
You all right?
- Yes. - Watch it. All right.
- Can you stand there? - Yes.
Okay. All right.
You all right?
Well, I've been better.
Easy. Easy. It's all right.
Nothing's gonna happen to you.
Here, hold this. You stay right here.
When I get back, we'll take us a little Spanish pause.
What?
Nothing.
I'm sorry about last night.
I know it doesn't matter, but if we're gonna die...
I want it to be as partners.
Fifty-fifty.
We was a good team.
Good? Shit.
- We were the best. - Honey pie--
Moon, I've been thinking.
Since we're gonna go anyway...
why don't we go out in a blaze of glory?
Tie me up.
We're alive.
- I've been watching you, Henry. - Figured.
Ain't you up a little early? We don't hit the bank till 10:00.
Well, there's been a little change in plans.
Well, I gotta tell Big Abe.
You gotta do what you gotta do.
I'll never forget you, Hermine.
You was the first woman I didn't have to pay for.
You're a mite early, compadre.
I want to make a withdrawal.
Your better half's gonna have to do that.
Ordinance husbands aren't allowed to make withdrawals.
Besides, we're closed.
You're open now. Open it up.
Over there in the bin.
Hurry up, Whitey.
I would've never figured you'd do this to Julia.
It's the only way to save my marriage, Whitey.
Grover, where is Julia at?
Goddamn.
Rocks.
Goddamn, honey pie.
Freeze, Moon!
Mr. Moon, you're still here.
Where's Julia?
I guess he ain't heard the news.
What news?
Your wife sold her property to the railroad.
Gentlemen, start tagging the furniture.
When?
Does that concern you now?
Where is she?
I believe on her way to Philadelphia.
And you're on your way to meet Saint Peter.
That's right, Moon.
You're on your way to meet Seņor Peter.
Come on out, Moon! We know you got it!
I ain't got nothing!
We don't believe you!
Henry, who the hell is that?
The ex-Moon gang.
If they want a gunfight...
they picked the wrong hombres to mess with!
Goddamn you! Watch it, Big Abe!
Okay. One, two, three!
- When did she leave? - Why should I tell you?
About a half-hour ago.
Now!
Moon! Shoot back.
Yes, sir, this is mighty strange stuff.
Miriam dropped a lantern in a puddle of it the other night...
and the whole farm about near went up in flame!
Burned half the hair off of my head.
Stunk for two weeks.
Well, the railroad said they've got no use for it...
so I thought perhaps I'd take these samples back east...
and maybe sell it.
What do you think, Miss Julia?
I'm sorry, Mr. Standard.
I didn't hear what you said.
Whoa in there!
Hold up in there.
All right. Just stay calm.
All right.
Step down, Julia.
Cotton, that son of a bitch can shoot.
He rode with Quantrill.
Come on. You've run far enough.
Come on, now.
I'm losing my patience.
You ain't taking my gold!
They discovered gold!
They just had a little too much bug juice.
You didn't even write a note when you left.
What was I supposed to write? "Good luck, Henry and Hermine"?
Well, I was gonna explain everything.
- See, I-- - Mr. Moon.
Are you gonna rob this stage or not?
Burn the breeze, Kyle...
or I'm gonna blow everybody in sight into feathers.
We don't desert our women out here, Mr. Moon.
It's all right, Sheriff. You go on ahead.
He's just trying to impress me.
Are you sure, Julia?
Well...
you two ought to try and get along, then.
We all had to.
My heart froze when I came home...
and you was gone, honey.
Let me help you up.
Thank you, Moon.
I'm not sure I'll ever get used to Mexico.
Why, sure you will, honey pie.
You got used to me, didn't you?
Anyways...
first, let's get used to being rich.
